If you have to ask, you can't afford the answer

You should grow the hell up and learn how men speak to one another.

Sounds like Andy Summers was using a little bit of chorus on that one.
Even if the piano player can't play, keep the party going.

Best song without a chorus? Based on some of your "definitions" of what a chorus is, pretty pointless to even bother answering.

I think some of you need to go back to school and take some music theory.

Songs that are in AAB form, or AAA form do NOT have choruses, regardless of how much you want to pretend they do.

And as much as I'd love to give everybody a lesson in music theory, I'm having such a rotten day that I honestly don't give a crap enough to waste my time.

So here is my favorite non chorus song. Bob Dylan was the master of the AAA form of writing. He told novels in his songs.

Can't find a decent version of this at Youtube (must be copyright crap) so you'll have to settle for Vimeo

Pretty much every great post rock song lacks a chorus, that's pretty intrinsic to the genre. If you want to go back to its psychedelic roots there's always https://youtu.be/ikMAH7k3pz4

For a good music homework exercise I suggest comparing and contrasting with

There must be some kind of way outta here
Said the joker to the thief
There's too much confusion
I can't get no relief

Business men, they drink my wine
Plowman dig my earth
None were level on the mind
Nobody up at his word
Hey, hey

No reason to get excited
The thief he kindly spoke
There are many here among us
Who feel that life is but a joke
But, uh, but you and I, we've been through that
And this is not our fate
So let us stop talkin' falsely now
The hour's getting late, hey

All along the watchtower
Princes kept the view
While all the women came and went
Barefoot servants, too
Outside in the cold distance
A wildcat did growl
Two riders were approaching
And the wind began to howl


Yup, no chorus
--After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.

-Aldous Huxley
